The first time Eddie sees Steve wearing glasses he gets so distracted by the sight of it that he walks into a wall.

[farttdust]

in a shocking turn of events, steve harrington has siblings. quite a few actually. and in another turn, steve isn't even his first name.

in fact, it's his third.

finding this out was a shock, especially since it wasn't from steve that everyone found out.

steve was in the bathroom fixing his hair when the phone rang, and he shouted down to robin who was in the living room to go ahead and answer it.

"hello, harrington residence?"

"uh. can i talk to eli, please?"

robin paused. who the hell is eli?

"um, sorry. there's no eli here..." she trailed unsurely, moving to hang up the phone.

"oh sorry. uh, steve. can i talk to steve? it's his sister, marianne."

robin almost dropped the phone, steve had a sister?

"oh, sure. one second."

she covered the phone with her hand and called out for the boy. "steve! your sisters on the phone!"

she didn't get the response she thought she would, because he called back, "which one?"

"marianne!"

and suddenly he was beside her, grabbing the phone and shooing her away.

while he spoke to his sister, robin made herself busy, grabbing steve's walkie and alerting the rest of the party of the new development.

"guys. steve's name isn't steve, it's eli! and he has siblings! plural!"

the cacophony that this statement caused was almost overwhelming, and by the time steve was done talking to marianne, eddie, dustin, and the rest of the rugrats were at the door begging for explanation.

steve was confused, until eddie looked him in the eye with a smug glint and breathed, "hey, eli." and the time it took for steve's face to turn cherry red was record breaking.

"uh. what? why- uh. why did you call me that?"

robin looked at him blankly, "i answered the phone, dingus. marianne started asking for eli."

steve sighed, "okay so like. here's the thing. Steve is my middle name- well one of them. and i only go by eli around family." the group stared. "we didnt know you had a family." dustin said flatly.

"well i had to get here somehow." steve retorted, and eddie chuckled. "he meant we didn't know you had siblings, eli."

"okay. don't call me that, and yeah. i have six, im the seventh. everyone else is a lot older than me."

his audience was placated with that answer, for now at least.

and when everyone but eddie left, the house was filled with breathy sighs of "eli." followed by soft giggles.

and soon they weaseled out his full name. which turned to be a resounding "Eli Reginald Stefano Harrington. The third."

followed by a shocked,

"The third?!"

what a sweet little pup…

Now I’m in full Steve mode. GIMME HIM

[whydamnitwhy]

He doesn’t even look at it. He doesn’t even hesitate. He just picks up the clothes, puts them back, pulls his sleeves up, and gets to work. I have FEELINGS in regards to this.

Steve Harrington jumps in head-firsts in fists bats and in volunteering. Send help.
